Prayer Resources

Tradition says people pray in order to praise and thank God, express sorrow and ask forgiveness, or ask for what they want for themselves and others. Basically, we human beings pray because we are hard-wired to pray. It is in our
natures to reach out to What is beyond us and to enter
into a relationship with That which we call God.

The aim of this
collection of prayers is to provide examples of how
some individuals and communities have expressed their
longings for God and, thus, to encourage those who use
it to make those words their own or to find their own
words and ways to pray.
